Updates

I've been negligent this week so some quick updates...

1. Manuel got a job in Morelia, where he thinks his brother is, and left the Casa. Haven't heard from him in a week and are hoping that is good news. He should have received his first paycheck at the end of the month.
2. Spring has fully sprung in Mexico - the jacarandas (remember those purple trees!) are in bloom and it's officially hot during the day.
3. I got groped on the Metrobus this week. My reaction time must be improving though because this time I managed to smack the guy's hand off my rear and call him a "cabron" loud enough for the crowded bus to hear.
4. The Casa is getting a new website! We have a wonderful volunteer who fell out of the sky and is redoing our site for us. He's an Iraqi born New Yorker, who has spent the last 5 years travelling around the world doing photography (and websites). I'll let you know when the new site is up!

That's about it for now. Better entries to come.
